ABPA - Australian Bush Poets Association

It wasn't your fault Stephen. A good compere would have brought the talk back to the topic you were there to be interviewed for (instead of reading his own poem!)

Heather

PS I waited very patiently for my cheerio

Thanks, Heather.

That's very big of you, Zondrae! Ralph is a great reciter, and a lovely bloke. Does he write also? I think I recall he has written the occasional poem, but I suspect not nearly as much as you. It's a shame there is not room for both of you - perhaps you should put your heads together, and make a case!

and if anyone can receive ABC Illawarra (97.3) tomorrow at 6.20am

Ralph Scrivens (current Queensland and New South Wales Reciting Champion) is being interviewed before he comes to poetry group. Should be a good interview - with poem.

High jacked again Stephen

I'm really disappointed about not getting a cheerio.

Yeah a good compere would have brought it back to the topic

"Thank you Stephen Whiteside, author, poet, philosopher, sailor, vagabond and occasional Quack - any cheerios Stephen?"

There's the cue

Yep.

Is it posted anywhere on the abc site Stephen I looked but with my limited putor skills it is probably there somewhere ?

or perhaps they could give you a copy to post on ya blog


Bob

Not sure, Bob. I suspect not. I'm trying to see if I can get hold a recording. I'll let you know what I find out.
